I removed the WIN factory plug from the gun last night . I dare say that had probably been in it since Mr. Asher acquired three gun new . And as advertised you can get five 3” shells in the Mag tube . I took it out this morning , thought we were going to get snow/sleet and turned into freezing rain so when I retired from my tree at 08:30 the Model 12 and my AR-10 were covered with ice Thought I had a picture of the model 12 covered in ice but just two of my AR .
